There is nothing worse than losing one’s post, said Republican Party of
Armenia Press Spokesperson Eduard Sharmazanov in response to ex-foreign
minister of Armenia Vardan Oskanyan’s statements. Recently, Oskanyan
had announced that the country’s governing authorities were carrying
a diplomatic defeat. "I understand very well Mr. Oskanyan’s emotional
state," Sharmazanov said.
He emphasized it would have been more acceptable if the ex-foreign
minister had been more restrained in his comments on the policy
stipulated by his colleague. "I think, Serzh Sargysyan’s entreprising
policy is producing the fruits of its labour. The world is seeing
Armenia completely differently," Sharmazanov stated, and added that
perhaps no event has taken place in Armenia’s newest history on which
the U.S., the E.U., and Russia would have a united opinion.
that in the newest Armenian history it is still unprecedented that
the US, EU and Russia have a united opinion in this matter.
"If it seems to Oskanyan that he is more patriotic than the current
foreign minister, he is gravely mistaken. One’s activities are measured
by results and his work," Sharmazanov concluded.
